Best Dressed Crime-fighting Duo Ever
Frances drifts the borrowed, or 'temporarily upcycled', sports car through the left turn, merrily ignoring the loud honks and shouts surrounding the two of them as they zoom past. Whatever, light was still green, it was a protected turn. "You still have a tracker on the perp?" she shouts over the chaos as she skips a gear to two to get to the fourth. Boy she hopes so, it's going to be embarrassing to explain to the cops if they lose the baddies. Her tie's loose around her neck, never willing to give the bad guys a noose to strangle with, and the matching graphite fedora is in the back seat of the sports car so it doesn't whip off with the wind. She's glad for the pants, though, running down anyone is a pain in the ass in skirt and heels.

"I figured. I mean, who wants their Chunky Monkey to suddenly have fur and a tail?" she readily agrees. At his question though, she slides into an expression of complete and total innocence. "Well, if I knew anything about gels from SHIELD's R&D, I might mention the anti-friction/bounce one, or the explodes-once-the-solvent-evaporates, or simply dies skin magenta on contact or once exposed to soap and water..."

	Martin nodded along, with an airy innocent smile plastered on. "That's interesting. There's spells to do the skin colour and explosion things. So I hear." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The two were having a oblivious face off, blithely smiling and nodding like dippy bird toys. "Fascinating stuff, isn't it?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yep! It's too bad they don't let us try them," he nods with the airy grin plastered on. Picture of innocence these two. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Such a pity, all of this is hypothetical," she agrees and takes another drink of her float. "You almost finished with your shake, Pip?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Her answer is a slurping sound characteristic to when one tries to get those last few drops with a straw. Yeah, he's finished. As if the slightly forlorn look wasn't answer enough. "Yeah..." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You'll get sick if you have too much and then your team will come down on me. We'll get some next time we're out, barring any emergencies," she compromises and winks at him. "Promise." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

He takes a long moment to squint at her to see if indeed she was telling the truth. Apparently what he found was good enough to convince him. "Okay, I'll remember though!" A thought occurs to him and he sits up and smiles again. "Hold on a sec! I remembered this time!" With that declaration he goes fishing into his hat for something until he seems to find it. With a grin he pulls out his hand to show something floating slightly above it.

Yes. A dubloon of all things.

"Here! For this milkshake and the other ones too!" The dubloon slides onto the top of his hat and he holds the hat out for her to fetch her strange payment.

	She plucks the dubloon and looks at closely to be sure that, yes, she's been given a pirate coin to pay for a milkshake. Boy, the Archive branch of SHIELD was going to have a field day when she got back. "This'll probably cover you for at least a year of milkshakes," she agrees and looks at him. "Not every day, though, so don't try. C'mon." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"A year of milkshakes?" There's that smile now that said he just realized something great. If one dubloon got a year of milkshakes...and considering how many dubloons he knew the Sanctum had... "Huh? Oh, yep. Coming!" Sorry, lost in a milkshake daydream there. He hops off his stool to follow her. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
